The Happening (POSSIBLE SPOILERS)

It Happened. Seriously, that movie was all kinds of Shyamalany (<- It's an adjective now).
Honestly, I was disappointed. It had room for interpretation, which I like, but the best grounds for an explanation were totally superfluous in the wake of the cause he inferred. Plus, bad acting, and Alma was totally star-struck the entire movie. Seriously, I hate that. Your one staple for female representation is just gonna gape with her mouth open the whole damn movie.
I thought, and this is just my view, I thought that it was human emotions that were effecting the plants, because the scene in the diner really reinforced the idea that people give off energy according to mood, and then in the greenhouse, that gardener stresses the point that plants are effected by human stimulus.
I thought I had it figured out, BUT NO! M Night Shyamalan dicked me out of self-confidence, instead of his characters (See: Lady in the Water). The explanation they provided sucked ASS. It was a terrible movie.
Thoughts and opinions, plz. And don't post to say 'I haven't seen it, but--'. No. If you haven't seen it, don't post, unless you're awesome. Only awesomeness will excuse your intrusion. Awesome people, you know who you are.

FA+

I knew I was in for trouble in the opening credits when it showed he wrote produced and directed, a perfect recipe for film disaster. I guess we can add another title to the grand political correct movie showcase.
